big news!

The world's astronomers have decided at last that Pluto no longer counts as a planet and has, instead, been demoted to 'dwarf planet' status. This is good as they've finally agreed upon a definition for what 'planet' means.

In other news, this is my 2nd work post and I'm close to rebuilding my home PC. I will soon be blogsurfing again! Also, I really haven't eaten much cereal lately. Has the world gone mad?!!

I've never been fond of Pluto anyways. It just sits out there in the dark acting all smug and such.
I'm glad scientists have finally put it in its place..

I don't know why you consider blogging from work to be a bad thing. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I could figure out how to get away with it!

But Pluto's namesake was a Disney dawg! They can't kick Pluto out of the planet club!

Oh, I don't consider it a bad thing, it's just I'm currently working off of another person's computer so I have to be a bit 'delicate' with stuff.
Still, I guess since I'm the one who monitors everyone's PCs in the first place, I shouldn't really care should I?

I bet there's a way to take that cool name of Pluto and apply it to something of more significance. Who'll really know the difference anyway?

when you return to cereal consumption, it's going to cut the roof of your mouth all over again.

They can do whatever they want, but they can't stop me from calling it a planet. Fight the power. Let's start an anarchist group that runs around at night, calling Pluto a planet and bombing observatories with bars of soap. And start a fight club.
